I assume this is a single phase motor with a capacitor housed in a power

Yes, single phase. In fact it has two "power bulges" on the top at 11
and 1 o'clock.

If so there'll be 2 windings, 1 powered directly with mains the other
indirectly through a capacitor. If the 2 windings are identical then the
capacitor may be swapped from one winding to the other. If they are not
identical it can't be reversed without overheating and/or loss of
performance.

I presume reversing the supply to either one of the windings would also
do it...
